DETAILS ~

Day Planner is a functional and bizarre ongoing work which has resulted in a two year archive of map-like schedules, the artist uses this planning system daily to condition his every life. The idea is to increase efficiency, joy and meaning. The artists will present the work followed by a 'day planning' workshop, enabling access to methods and tools, that may increase the likely hood of a more satisfied daily existence via this self taught system.

"succes can be deofned as bing your self and failure as being presudaed to be somebody else, a perfect day coukld be though t of as spending time at a pace, place and amnanner that supports or revelas one's true self, what is a a perfect day? Everyday, is easily at hand, especially if you know how to value what you alreayd ahve and can counter the persuasion of those intent on taking it from you use industrial time and motion and quantivitative analysis to perfect your perfection come to the day plan workshop run by Sarah and Myself, two hyper ambitious babes." Heath Bunting

The event takes place in the old council house of Bristol, in the Lantern Room where the councillors would meet. The room is impressive: all the walls are gilded, the ceiling is pattern encrusted and there's pictures of lords and ladies on the walls.

She has a natural empathy with Day Planning, having been a systematizer for many years, and has developed it as a practical tool to increase her understanding of her relationship to the social environment.
